This is what people need to start waking up to.
You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

The person photographed here who is in their bathrobe filming armed, masked federal agents in St. Paul is MPR News journalist @samstroozas.bsky.social @mprnews.org . She is an incredible journalist and person. We do not deserve her.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.
Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

Invoking wealthy class solidarity to excuse sex crimes against children is sorta the Epstein Class in a nutshell
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

Watching #IrishMaga breaking their backs defending the illegal detention without trial of one of our own is just the saddest inversion ever.
The most pathetic and spineless ghouls imaginable, towing the line no matter who it affects.

I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance".
It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder".
The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.

Hundreds of people are reporting that leaves are falling off trees in every single area that Catherine Connolly has visited recently. Coincidence? Maybe. But can we take that risk with the presidency?

It really can't be said enough: the goal of the "anti-woke" movement was always to destroy social norms against bigotry. And it worked. And there's a whole lot of purportedly "left" thinkers & commentators who helped it -- indeed, it couldn't have been done without them.
They should feel bad.

I would like Trump's letter to Brazil to live on as one of the important primary source documents of the Trump era, linking trade restrictions in historical memory to impunity for criminal behavior, right-wing nationalist authoritarian politics, coups, domestic illegality, and simple illiteracy.

At a key cloture vote in the Senate fight for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Democrats wheeled in Sen. Clair Engle, who was dying from a brain tumor.
He’d lost the ability to speak, so when the Clerk called his name, he simply pointed to his eye.
And the clerk said: “Senator Engle, aye.”

Apparently Al Green (no, not *that* Al Green, the one in the House) was wheeled in after having surgery. Still don't know whether Dems planned it all day and successfully baited Johnson. Perhaps C-SPAN could invite Admiral Ackbar on for his expertise on such things.
Gotta wonder whether Dems withheld Al Green's vote all day as a trap.
